Howdy, gang! We had an awful lot of comments from which to choose this week, but one stood out above the rest, and it’s from our old pal A-Ram Baller in the “Paul Sullivan burned my Bible” post. A-Ram does what we should all do every once in a while. Poke a little fun [...]

Hey, there, gang! Skip has been falling behind in his comment selection, so this week, you get two comments for the price of one. How exciting is that? Our first comment was turned in by our old pal, Mark Giangreco Roman Wrestler: If Mike Quade reads this blog, he is so gonna paint slanted eyebrows [...]

It’s that time of week again, gang. The time of week when we crown a champion. Someone worthy to carry the weight that comes with the bearer of the title of “Comment of the Week.” In keeping with the theme of the week, this week’s winner commented about none other than Hall of Famer, [...]

Hello, gang! There were a lot of good comments this week, but today’s news that Milton Bradley was traded to the Mariners for terrible pitcher Carlos Silva led to a bushel of good nuggets that trumped them all. My favorite one of them all came from paintersix, who had this to say: I think Ricketts is [...]

Boy, oh, boy. How long has it been since old Skip posted a Comment of the Week? Days? Weeks? Months? YEARS!? Mea culpa, ladies and gentlemen. Like a phoenix rising from Joe Altobelli’s ashes, I have returned for this week’s… Few things make me chuckle more than a commenter [...]

Another week passes, and another comment rises to fame. This week’s star comment comes from our Milton Bradley discussion. EnricoPallazzo paints this dream scenario (seriously) which will, unfortunately, probably never happen. I say we suspend Cubs baseball for a period of two years. Trade away any talent we have at the AAA and above level [...]

Hey, gang! Either you guys are terrified of the new commenting system or you’re upset that the team you follow has taken a nose dive, because there weren’t many comments to choose from this week. That’s great news for you folks who are dying for a Comment of the Week trophy, like Grow [...]

Hey there, gang! This week, while you were busy not watching the Cubs lose, we had an impressive debut by a new poster. That’s why Ghost of Lynn McGlothlen is the winner of this week’s Comment of the Week for this gem. Hey, Kerm…ol’ Lynn here. Just remember when your “Mad Dog” turns seven, [...]

Hello, gang! It’s good to see you all back after a very rough week of Cubs baseball. Though there is a bright side to having a rough week. The angst-filled comments by you guys get better and better the worse the team plays. So, I’m declaring all of you owners of [...]

Hello again, gang! It’s time to pick out another funny, stupid, or grammatically-incorrect comment that you may have missed this week! This week’s dose of craziness comes from a White Sox fan. Surprised? You should be. “Mike” weighs in on a post written over a year and two months ago with this: I [...]
